Abortion destroys precious individuals who are made in the image of God. “Choice,” a riveting Spoken Word poetry video by Living Waters President, Emeal (“E.Z.”) Zwayne, drives this urgent truth home, and holds up the glorious gospel as our only hope and remedy.

Choice—is it really?Or is it silly to sayThat a choice is given When no voice is givenTo the one whose life is taken away?

No, not silly—tragicA tragedy of epic proportionsWhere epic distortionsHave led to an epidemic Of holocaustic abortions

MurderYes, I said the wordIt isn’t easy to hearBut it needs to be heard

So it needs to be saidBecause blood has been shedBecause babies are deadSo I will not optFor a soft word instead

Choice?

Yes, choices are madeSome choose to silenceBabies’ heartbeats with violenceAnd hit-men called doctors Choose to get paid

Now here’s where it gets dramaticWhere I get labeled a right-wing extremist A religious fanaticBut let me be emphaticI’ll take any nameAs long as I proclaim ChristAnd save babies from being SacrificedWhile I’m at itThat would make me ecstatic So go ahead and aim your verbal automaticAnd fire away and get erraticTo me, that will not beIn the least bit problematic

But here is where the problem liesIt’s where Christians choose to compromiseIt’s where we choose to cover up our eyesWhile baby after baby dies

It’s where sinners are sinking into HellAnd we have saving truthsWe choose to refuse to tell

That’s the realityThat’s the current mentalitySome offer baby girls and boysTo an idol called choiceIn the name of convenience and individuality

For the Christian whose failed to take a standHe still extends His nail-pierced hand

So for the sake of His gloryAnd the sake of His fameLet Him fan your flickering flameAnd casting aside the fear and the shameRepent and obey and speak truth in His Name

So where is the hope?

For the sinner, there is faith and repentanceBecause God can wipe away your sentenceBecause He chose to send HisSonThe OneHe chose to sacrifice in the sinner’s place So He can give sinners graceBecause there is no sin, without or withinThat His redeeming blood cannot erase

He can impute to sinners His righteous perfectionThrough His death and glorious resurrection

So don’t let it get distortedYou can be forgivenEven if you’ve aborted

That’s the truthDon’t ignore itIf your heart is contriteHe’ll make it right and restore it

Choice

Some will make the choice to ariseTo open their eyesTo see through the liesTo turn from foolish to wise

Choice

Some will make the choice to refuseTo reject truth and Good NewsTo still stumble and snooze And they’ll have a whole lot to lose
